He should get a YES Basic 2012 and be done with it then?????

Soft Flex, CamRock, and if there’s a last years floatin around, it will not only be a bargain, it will also have a sintered base for the rest of the mountain, and Japow as well!!!!!

^ There’s an option for ya Lano.

That’s actually exactly what you need if you can find one for the right price. Sintered bases are so much better than extruded too.

I was thinking that all DCs had their awesome (golf ball surface) sintered base, but I guess that’s only on certain models. I wish I could find a board that fits me with that base
rage

Yeah, I love the sintered base on my HKD, but it has some war wounds!!!!! And I def don’t go hard, and not a park rat of any description!!!!!

Pretty sure that the “Golf Ball Surface” is the Structurn Base????? Stepchild use a similar structure in some of their boards too!!!!!


quite a few companies have jumped on the structurn wagon but DC has done it too their whole catalogue

the way i view it is struc turn is like finishing
as there is still different structurn bases within the DC range
the MLF/Devun has the sinitered versions (HKD changed to the devun model)

When I rode the Basic it felt a lot softer than the Octorocker.

It’s softer in the tip/tail, which can lead to that overall impression.
